The following explains an application scenario of the embodiment of the present invention:
fig. 1 is a schematic view of an application scenario of a water temperature control method of a water heater according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 1, the water temperature control method of the water heater according to the embodiment is applied to a water temperature controller, the water temperature controller is respectively in communication connection with an intelligent water heater and a water quantity monitor, a water outlet of the intelligent water heater is connected with one end of an outlet pipe, the other end of the outlet pipe is connected with a water inlet of the water quantity monitor, and a water outlet of the water quantity monitor is communicated with a water consumption point. When a user has a water demand, a water outlet switch at the water using point, such as a faucet, is turned on, and hot water heated and output by the intelligent water heater flows out from the water outlet point through a water outlet pipeline and a water quantity monitor, so that the water demand of the water using point is realized. In some possible implementations, the water quantity monitor includes a first water inlet and a second water inlet, the first water inlet is communicated with the water heater for inputting hot water, the second water inlet is communicated with the cold water pipe for inputting cold water, and the cold water and the hot water generate hot water with proper temperature through the water mixing effect of the water quantity monitor and flow out from the water consumption point to meet the water consumption requirement of the user.
In the prior art, along with the use scenes of the gas water heater are more and more, the requirements of a user on water temperature and water quantity are more and more diversified. The water temperature of the gas water heater is manually adjusted, which causes the problems of time and labor waste and poor temperature adjusting effect in the adjusting process, in some related technologies, a communication module is arranged in the gas water heater, and a controller of the gas water heater is utilized to process the data collected by the water temperature sensor and the flow sensor arranged in each water outlet pipeline, so as to determine the water outlet temperature and the heating power of the gas water heater, however, for the technical scheme, because the collected water temperature and water amount data need to be transmitted to the gas water heater for processing, and because the working characteristics of the gas water heater are generally arranged in the edge area of a house such as a kitchen and the like and the distance between each water outlet point is far, the water outlet detection device arranged at each water outlet point cannot directly form good communication with the gas water heater, thereby affecting the real-time performance of the transmission of the collected data, therefore, in the prior art, a water outlet detection device is arranged in a water outlet pipeline close to a gas water heater for detecting the water temperature and the water amount, but in such a scheme, a plurality of water outlet points share one water outlet detection device, and when the water usage scenes and the water usage requirements of the water outlet points are different, the scheme cannot meet the accurate water usage requirements of the water outlet points.
Meanwhile, for the same water consumption point, the required water consumption temperature may be different under different scenes. For example, a water spot in a kitchen, which may be used by a user for washing hands, may require a low water temperature, but may be used by a user for taking a basin of water for soaking feet, which may require a high water temperature. Therefore, how to realize intelligent temperature control of each water consumption point in different water consumption scenes is a problem which needs to be solved urgently at present.
The following describes the technical solution of the present invention and how to solve the above technical problems with specific examples. The following several specific embodiments may be combined with each other, and details of the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of a water temperature control method of a water heater according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to a water temperature controller, the water temperature controller is respectively in communication connection with an intelligent water heater and a water quantity monitor, and the water quantity monitors are in one-to-one correspondence with water consumption points, as shown in fig. 2, the water temperature control method of the water heater according to the embodiment includes the following steps:
and S101, receiving water quantity information sent by a water quantity monitor, and determining water usage scene information according to the water quantity information, wherein the water quantity information is used for representing the water yield of the water usage point.
Exemplarily, referring to an application scenario diagram shown in fig. 1, a water quantity monitor is an effluent collecting and controlling device installed on one side close to an effluent point, a water inlet of the water quantity monitor is communicated with a water outlet of an intelligent water heater, a water outlet of the water quantity monitor is communicated with the effluent point, a flow sensor is arranged in the water quantity monitor, and through the flow sensor, the water flow flowing out from the water outlet of the water quantity monitor can be collected.
Further, for example, the water usage scenario information is information characterizing or describing the water usage scenario, such as an identifier of the water usage scenario. After a user opens a water outlet switch of a starting water point, the water quantity monitor sends collected water quantity information to the water temperature controller, and the user generally operates the water switch to use different water switch opening degrees under different water using scenes, so that different water quantity information can be caused by the water switch opening degrees, and therefore a certain mapping relation exists between the water using scenes and the water quantity information. For example, if the maximum water flow rate of the water consumption point is 100, the water flow rate used by the user during hand washing is 50; when the bowls are washed, the water flow is 30; when the container is used for receiving a large amount of hot water, the water flow rate is 100. Accordingly, the water usage scenario information corresponding to the water amount information is determined based on the water flow information, the corresponding water usage scenario a when the water flow rate is 50, the corresponding water usage scenario B when the water flow rate is 30, and the corresponding water usage scenario C when the water flow rate is 100. The water quantity information and the water usage scene information have a preset mapping relationship, the mapping relationship can be set by a user in a self-defined mode or determined by a self-learning mode according to the use habits of the user, and the mapping relationship is not repeated here.
And step S102, determining a corresponding target temperature according to the water scene information.
For example, after the water usage scenario information is determined, according to configuration information preset by a user or a use habit of the user, the water usage temperature matched with the water usage scenario is determined, for example, in the water usage scenario a, the matching temperature is 30 ℃; in the water use scenario B, the matching temperature is 25 degrees celsius, and in the water use scenario C, the matching temperature is 45 degrees celsius. For example, according to the distance between the intelligent water heater and the water outlet point, the water temperature can be directly determined as the target temperature, and the water temperature is determined as the target temperature after the water temperature is compensated based on the pipeline distance between the intelligent water heater and the water outlet point. In a possible implementation manner, only one water consumption point is started at the same time, at this time, the water usage scene information corresponding to the water consumption point corresponds to the only target temperature, and the target temperature corresponding to the water usage scene information is determined according to the preset mapping relationship between the water usage scene information and the target temperature.
And step S103, sending the target temperature to the intelligent water heater so that the intelligent water heater outputs hot water at the target temperature.
Exemplarily, after the target temperature is determined, the target temperature is sent to the intelligent water heater in real time, wherein the water temperature controller and the intelligent water heater can communicate with each other in multiple ways, for example, the water temperature controller and the intelligent water heater are connected through wifi, further, in one possible implementation manner, the water temperature controller and the intelligent water heater can be connected with the same gateway device, so as to achieve communication between the water temperature controller and the intelligent water heater, in another possible implementation manner, the water temperature controller can achieve a gateway function through an internal network module, the intelligent water heater is wirelessly connected with the water temperature controller, so as to achieve access of a local area network, and the intelligent water heater can communicate with the water temperature controller and other devices in the local area network.
Further, in a possible implementation manner, fig. 3 is a schematic view of another application scenario of the water temperature control method for the water heater according to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, the water temperature controller is in communication connection with a plurality of intelligent water heaters, each intelligent water heater corresponds to one or more water consumption points, and after determining target temperatures corresponding to different water consumption points, the water temperature controller sends the target temperatures to the intelligent water heater to which the water consumption points belong according to attribution information of the water consumption points, so that the corresponding intelligent water heaters can output hot water at temperatures matched with the application scenario, where the intelligent water heaters may be gas water heaters, electric water heaters, and air energy water heaters. In this embodiment, under some more complicated application scenarios, for example, the house of big usable floor area, commercial place, probably the water outlet point is many, only can't realize the cover to the whole house through a water heater, consequently need set up many water heaters, under this scene, through external water temperature controller, can realize many unified control and management to an intelligent water heater, need not to carry out independent setting and management to each water heater, realize unified whole house intellectuality, improve the intelligent degree and the accuracy of water temperature control, provide water comfort and convenience in utilization.
In the embodiment, water consumption scene information is determined by receiving water quantity information sent by a water quantity monitor and according to the water quantity information, wherein the water quantity information is used for representing the water yield of a water consumption point; determining a corresponding target temperature according to the water use scene information; send target temperature to intelligent water heater to make intelligent water heater output target temperature's hot water, because different water consumption points are under the water scene of difference, the discharge that opens is different, consequently through gathering the discharge information of water consumption point, confirm the water scene, and will with this water scene assorted target temperature send to intelligent water heater, make intelligent water heater can output the hot water of assorted temperature, realize the intelligent control by temperature change of different water consumption points, improve the water comfort level.
Fig. 4 is a schematic flow chart of a water temperature control method of a water heater according to another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4, the water temperature control method of the water heater according to the present embodiment further refines step S101 on the basis of the water temperature control method of the water heater according to the embodiment shown in fig. 2, and the method according to the present embodiment can be applied to a water usage scenario in which water is output from a plurality of water usage points simultaneously, and then the water temperature control method of the water heater according to the present embodiment includes the following steps:
step S201, respectively receiving the water quantity information sent by at least two water quantity monitors, and determining corresponding water usage scene information according to the water quantity information.
For example, fig. 5 is a schematic view of a water usage scenario provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 5, the number of the water volume monitors is at least two, and when at least two corresponding water usage points output water simultaneously, the at least two water volume monitors respectively collect corresponding water volume information and respectively send the respective water volume information to the water temperature controller, and the water temperature controller determines the water usage scenario information of the water output point corresponding to each water volume monitor according to the water volume information uploaded by the water volume monitors.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 6, step S201 includes three specific implementation steps S2011, S2012, and S2013:
in step S2011, identification information of the water amount monitor is acquired.
Step S2012, determining a water usage scene recognition model corresponding to the identification information of the water volume monitor, where the water usage scene recognition model is used to characterize a mapping relationship between the water output of the water usage point and the water usage scene information.
And step S2013, determining water consumption scene information corresponding to the water consumption according to the water consumption scene recognition model.
For example, in the process of communicating the water quantity monitor with the water temperature controller, the water temperature controller may obtain identification information of the water quantity monitor for identifying different water quantity monitors, and when the water quantity monitor corresponds to a water consumption point, the identification information of the water quantity monitor is indicative of the water consumption point. Scene recognition models of different water consumption points are preset in the water temperature controller, for example, a scene recognition model corresponding to a kitchen water consumption point when the water consumption point is in a kitchen, and a scene recognition model corresponding to a toilet water consumption point when the water consumption point is in a toilet. The scene recognition model is used for representing the mapping relation between the water yield of the water consumption points and the water consumption scene information, the water consumption is used as the input quantity, and the corresponding water consumption scene information can be obtained according to the scene recognition models of different water consumption points.
Further, for example, the water usage scene recognition model includes water usage scene information corresponding to the water output in different time intervals, specifically, the water usage is used as an input of the scene recognition model, the time is used as another input of the scene recognition model, and the water usage scene information corresponding to the water output can be determined, and the specific implementation process includes: acquiring current system time; and determining corresponding water use scene information by taking the current system time as a first input quantity and taking the water consumption as a second input quantity according to the water use scene recognition model and the current system time.
Because user's work and rest has certain regularity, when the user used the water spot, often in different time intervals, it was different with the water scene to correspond, for example, the user was when washing face in the morning, and more comfortable when the temperature is lower, and when washing face in evening, more comfortable when the temperature is higher, and the required temperature of user is relevant with the time. Therefore, in the embodiment, the current time is used as the input quantity of the water usage scene recognition model, and the water usage scene information corresponding to the water amount is determined, so that the accuracy of the water usage scene can be further improved, the comfort degree of water usage of a user is improved, and the user experience is improved.
And step S202, determining the outlet water temperature corresponding to each water use scene information.
And step S203, determining the highest value of the water outlet temperatures as a target temperature.
For example, when a plurality of water consumption points use water simultaneously, each water consumption point corresponds to different water consumption scene information, correspondingly, each water consumption scene information also corresponds to a specific outlet water temperature for sending to the intelligent water heater, for example, the water consumption point a corresponds to the water consumption scene information a (for example, corresponds to a bathing scene), and the corresponding outlet water temperature is 42 ℃; the water consumption point B corresponds to the water usage scene information B (for example, corresponds to a hand washing scene), and the corresponding water outlet temperature is 35 ℃. Further, the highest temperature among the respective outlet water temperatures, such as the outlet water temperature of 42 degrees celsius corresponding to the water usage scenario information a in the above example, is determined as the target temperature.
For example, in a possible implementation manner, since water is used at multiple water consumption points simultaneously, hot water output by the water heater may be diverted, and the amount of water at each water consumption point may be reduced, and in consideration of this situation, in the process of determining the target temperature, the temperature drop compensation caused by the process of mixing hot water output by the water heater with cold water may be taken into consideration, so as to obtain a target temperature subjected to temperature compensation, which is not described herein again.
And step S204, sending the target temperature to the intelligent water heater so that the intelligent water heater outputs hot water at the target temperature.
For example, after the temperature is determined, the target temperature is sent to the intelligent water heater, so that the intelligent water heater takes the target temperature as a heating target and outputs hot water outwards. The hot water flows out from each water consumption point after passing through the water consumption monitors corresponding to each water consumption point in sequence through the output port of the water heater.
Because the water temperature of the hot water output by the intelligent water heater is the target temperature and is only suitable for the water outlet point of the water usage scenario corresponding to the highest water temperature (in some implementations, if the target temperature is in the determination process, the cold water mixing is considered and the temperature compensation is performed, and the water outlet point of the water usage scenario corresponding to the highest water temperature also needs to be performed with the cold water mixing), if other water outlet points want to reach the water temperature matched with the water usage scenario, the cold water mixing needs to be performed to reach the water outlet temperature corresponding to the information of each water usage scenario, as an example, after S204, the following steps are further included:
in step S205, a temperature correction amount corresponding to each piece of water usage scenario information is determined according to the target temperature and the outlet water temperature corresponding to each piece of water usage scenario information.
In step S206, cold water input amount information is determined according to the temperature correction amount.
For example, the outlet water temperature determined by the water usage scenario information corresponding to each water usage point is the water temperature actually required by each water usage point, and the difference between each outlet water temperature and the target temperature is the temperature value to be corrected, that is, the temperature correction amount. For example, the target temperature is 50 degrees celsius, the water outlet temperature for the application water point a and the water outlet temperature for the application water point B is 35 degrees celsius, and the corresponding temperature correction amount is 5 degrees celsius; the water temperature of the water using point C is 40 ℃, and the corresponding temperature correction amount is 10 ℃. Of course, the implementation form of the temperature correction amount is only exemplary, and the temperature correction amount may have other implementation forms, such as a heat value. And will not be described in detail herein.
Furthermore, after the temperature correction amount is determined, according to the real-time water outlet amount of the water outlet point and the water outlet temperature, the corresponding cold water input amount can be determined, so that the hot water with the target temperature output by the water heater is mixed by the proper amount of cold water, and the water temperature of each water point is enabled to be proper and matched with the application scene.
And step S207, sending the cold water input information to the water quantity monitor so that the water quantity monitor adjusts the cold water input quantity of the second water inlet according to the cold water input quantity information.
For example, referring to fig. 5, a servo system is arranged in the temperature controller, the cold water input amount sent to the water amount monitor is adjusted by continuously acquiring real-time water temperature and water amount data, and the time water amount servo unit realizes the water flow control of cold water and hot water, so that the temperature control of different water ports is realized, and the specific implementation principle of the servo system is not repeated herein.
In the embodiment, the cold water input information is sent by the water quantity monitors corresponding to different water consumption points, so that the accurate control of the water outlet temperatures of different water consumption points can be realized, the water outlet temperature of each water outlet point can be still ensured to be matched with the water consumption scene where the water consumption points are located under the scene that water is simultaneously discharged by multiple water consumption points, and the intelligent temperature control effect and the water consumption comfort level of a user are improved.
Optionally, before step S201, the method further includes:
and step S200, receiving water temperature information sent by the water quantity monitor, wherein the water temperature information is used for representing the outlet water temperature of the water using point, and if the outlet water temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold, receiving the water quantity information sent by the water quantity monitor.
For example, in some application scenarios, a user does not need to use hot water, and therefore, before performing temperature control, the water temperature information sent by the water quantity monitor is received, if the outlet water temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold, it is determined that the user has a need to use hot water at the outlet point, and then the water quantity information sent by the water quantity monitor is received, and subsequent processing steps are performed. In this embodiment, by receiving the water temperature information sent by the water amount monitor and determining the water temperature information, the number of data received and processed by the water temperature controller can be reduced, the system load can be reduced, and the system efficiency can be improved.
In this embodiment, the implementation manner of step S204 is the same as the implementation manner of step S103 in the embodiment shown in fig. 2 of the present invention, and is not described in detail here.
